A home is built not through physical materials like bricks and tiles but through love, care and a sense of belonging shared between family members. It provides a sanctuary where individuals can find peace, security and comfort rather than just a physical structure.

The document presents a contrastive analysis of concepts of man and creativity in Western and Islamic psychologies, highlighting various viewpoints from psychoanalysis, behaviorism, and humanistic psychology. It emphasizes that while Western paradigms can sometimes contradict one another, Islamic psychology provides a cohesive understanding that considers man's dual nature and inherent creativity. The author suggests that creativity exists both inherently within individuals and in response to environmental stimuli, urging educators to foster this latent potential in children.22.Education and Life-UTHM Johor.pdf

This book is a co-authorship between Wendy Maltz and Larry Maltz, a wife and husband team who have vast experience in counselling and providing therapy for people who are saddled with their sexual matters. Wendy is a clinical social worker, psychotherapist, author, educator and sex therapist. While her husband Larry is a counsellor who owns the Maltz Counseling Associates.
The book produced by this couple in many ways, I assume, as a groundbreaking work that exposes how porn addiction can destroy the lives of people who are entangled in its vicious circle.
As one familiar with psychology and counselling, I find The Porn Trap to be a good resource book for counsellors, teachers, therapists, etc. The first part of the book brings to the awareness of the readers on the history and metamorphosis of the porn industry. Moreover, the first part also explains how porn overtakes the lives of those who intrude into its territory.
The book offers insightful information on how porn works on the human mind. Being less theoretical, the authors gathered firsthand information from a series of interviews conducted with those affected by porn. A classic example of how one can be allured into porn can be seen from this interview excerpt conducted by the authors:
She (girlfriend) left town for a few days and I decided to look at porn on the internet to satisfy me. Up til then Id never been interested in porn. I began on a Friday afternoon looking at the free peeks. By Saturday I was into sex chats, and by Sunday I had joined a swinger site. One thing led to another- a domino effect. Two weeks later my girlfriend looked in our computer log and saw what Id been up to. I lied to her about it, said I had been doing government research of all things. A month later she left me. I never realised that porn had the power to upend my life the way that it did (p.11).
In contrast to the first part, in the second part of the book, the authors equip the readers with the information on how to heal from porn addiction. In this section, they propose some steps and techniques to prevent relapses after healing has taken place.
As to the question, how big is the porn industry, one would be surprised to know that porn is a multi-billion industry. Unlike many countries in the East, porn is an approved thing in America and Europe. In the distant past, porn used to be a hidden thing in many parts of the world. During that time, one has to be clandestine consumer of porn.
But now, with the coming age of internet and social media, porn is finding its way into the privacy of people. They say if you are an internet user, it knocks on the screen persuasively to allure you into its venomous trap. In other words, porn now takes the role of a predator that hunts for its victims. One of their clients, a sixty-five-year-old single man who spoke of his addiction, and to what extent the industry has grown, said the following:

11.Muslim World Needs a New Mindset to Face Modern Challenges.pdfMohd Abbas Abdul Razak
油
In a world full of contending ideologies, Muslim communities throughout the world face an enormous amount of challenges in preserving their identity, faith and culture.
The world media which is under the control of some powerful western conglomerates, projects Muslims as an uncultured and backward people. In many occasions, leadership crisis and other political upheavals that happen in Muslim countries are blown out of proposition and reported in a condescending way so that the world would see the Muslims as a problematic bunch of people. The sort of message it intends to narrate to the world is one that depicts as though the whole world cries for peace, while the Muslim world wants war and chaos.
Ever since 9/11, Western media takes an unfriendly attitude towards the Muslim community by calling them with all sorts of obscure names like terrorists, extremists, fundamentalists and Jihadis, etc. Western journalists also use derogatory terms and caricatures to show that the Prophet of Islam as a warmonger who promotes violence and killing of the innocents.

At times, modernity and its complexities can drive people in the modern world into madness. Despite the fact that people in the urban areas are surrounded by the gifts of science and technology, there are moments in their lives, they might think and feel that all the electronic gadgets which keep their life going, become meaningless. Under certain circumstances in life, regardless of whether people live in the modern setting in the urban or in the remote, they go through similar human experiences. Though the outer world of the two can somehow be different due to economic disparities, their inner world and the dynamics at work are pretty much the same. As human beings, at some point in their lives, both are bound to go through psychological burdens like stress, anxiety, anger, depression, bereavement, etc. When there is something boiling and bubbling in the inner world, meaning to say in the deep recesses of their hearts, people wherever they are, look for a quick fix to solve their problems. During such desperate situations, people seek some sort of divine intervention, a philosophy or a mind-control technique to get themselves out of their awful and pathetic condition. Since most people do know the ways and methods how to calm down their hearts, minds and souls, they seek help from those who are experts. Review on the Secret of Childhood

Building a Strong Foundation for High-Quality Healthcare Travel
"Medical tourism is not a casual venture," says Dr. Tran. "It demands a robust ecosystemstate-of-the-art medical equipment, highly qualified healthcare professionals, strong aesthetic and wellness services, and even integration of traditional medicine practices."

The city has already ratified a strategic plan for developing medical tourism, aiming to blend its vibrant travel offerings with health services such as diagnostics, wellness retreats, cosmetic procedures, and traditional medicine therapies. What makes Danang stand out is its unique ability to integrate healthcare with world-class tourism experiences, Dr. Tran explains.

Is Danang Late to the Game? Not Quite.

Danang, with its favorable cost structure and rising medical standards, is well-positioned, he adds.

What Tourists Are Seeking
Though data specific to medical tourism usage is sparse, Dr. Tran notes a growing trend: We see strong demand for cosmetic enhancements, health screenings, physical conditioning programs, and traditional medicine experiences. These are areas where Vietnamand especially Dananghas a comparative advantage.
These services are bolstered by a skilled medical workforce, advanced medical technology, and the allure of beachside recovery and relaxationa major draw for health-conscious travelers.
